OK, so contrary to many reviews this movie is not as bad as many say it is. I mean if you are into the gangsta / mob genre this would be an awesome movie. Let me first say that I appreciate the fact that they used REAL Jamaicans to play the role of a Jamaican, at least for the latter part at least. Being Jamaican I have a pet peeve about FAKE Jamaican accents in movies. I do not believe there is anything more annoying and #1 turn off in movies.
Moving on. The movie starts with an ill developed friendship. There is so much more depth that could have been added to the friendship storyline that would make for a much stronger storyline further down. Jumping some twenty years ahead left many unanswered questions that was not answered even at the end of the movie.
Kymani Marley did an excellent job I must say! The other actors were great also but he was my favorite for what he did with this story in terms of the accents. He made it believable. But Kymani when they made you into some ninja jumping matrix superhuman towards the end was not only unrealistic but completely stupid.
There was not much light shun on the drug trade in the USA or Jamaica. There was too much killing making this flick into a pumped blood and gore film. Story lines were not developed entirely but certainly not an awful movie.
